About this mod

A unique flare gun modified to shoot 25mm grenades.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Apparently some genius gunsmith working for the Nevada Highway Patrol at the time of the Great War decided there was little enough difference between 1" caliber flares and 25mm grenades that, in a respectable bid for the most menacing muzzle on a handgun ever, he could jury rig some of the vintage Italian flare guns the NHP happened to have in storage into compact grenade launchers to help fight off the Chinese invasion.

Of course, as we all know by now, mobile police armed with home made explosive pistols weren't enough to win the war. Alas.

Still, it's not too late for some lucky scavenger prospector who finds it to put his creation to good use in the postwar wasteland! It's a very light, compact weapon with the power of a light mortar in a handgun size package - the bang to pounds ratio is amazing!

Just, uh, mind where you point it. Use in small enclosed spaces or otherwise at point blank range is not recommended.


Additions

* A unique flare gun with a custom texture, modified to fire 25mm grenades. The heavy but very slow projectile does relatively little damage on its own (20 regular, 10 crit) but, well, it's a grenade (vanilla variety explode on impact for 50 damage in a roughly 8m radius; other flavors will vary in performance). Uses Guns skill instead of Explosives.

* A locked (Easy) briefcase in the back of the Nevada Highway Patrol Station containing said weapon and a handful of ammo.


Installation

Just download and install with NMM. Or download manually, extract everything to your Data folder and activate 25mmPistol.esp in the launcher
if you want to do things the hard way. To uninstall, do the opposite! :)

Requires Lonesome Road.

May conflict with anything that modifies the Nevada Highway Patrol Station interior.

The uploaded mod seems to work perfectly for me but, frankly, in all likelihood I'm liable to have done at least something stupid. If something goes wrong, yell at me via comments or PM and hey, maybe I'll fix it. You never know!

If you want more loot in the same place, also fairly balanced and lore friendly, have a look at my other mod, The Batoning.
